In this final episode of The Moms I Know Podcast, we introduce you to Laura Hernandez, a mom to 10 children and teens, and the founder of her own small business, Mama Systems. If anyone knows what overwhelm and chaos feel like, Laura does, and not only did she figure out a way to create peace in her own home and life, she’s designed a system that will help you to discover peace in your home as well.
No, there is not one system or structure for every family - it’s not one size fits all - but Laura believes that every family can develop a system that works uniquely for them, she’s been helping other families to achieve this goal for years, and she’s here to help you, too.
Listen in to learn more about Laura, how her family of 12 came to be, and how she works with families now to help them discover their family’s unique strengths in order to develop systems that are sustainable and empowering for the whole family. Laura says that the best things about creating systems in her own home are that she’s now able to spend more time focussing on her own passions and she’s more able to enjoy the time she gets to spend with the people she loves most. The best part of this interview is that she’s here with us today because she wants the same thing for you. We hope you enjoy this episode.
About Laura Hernandez:
Laura is a wife and mom of 10. After adding 6 children to her family in 4.5 years, she decided that she needed to find a way to create peace in her home so that her large family could really mesh and thrive together. After reading countless books on homeschooling, large family logistics, and family dynamics, she decided that she needed something different, something that uniquely fit the needs and abilities of her own family - it was then that Mama Systems was born. Having discovered her own secret sauce, Laura now coaches other families through the process of defining their own systems through the use of schedules, deligation, incentives, and creativity with flexibility for all the realness of life.
